It's hard to say what might be causing the stop. A shell script isn't really intended to take binary input directly from the console, but it maybe could be handled in a more graceful manner.

;D <- I just couldn't resist! Thank you!

@joebobfrank: Why is this so dangerous tommyboy? I hear lot of people connect to their computers remotely through the Internet. Some people host their own FTP servers and some people host websites from their homes too, is this dangerous? To a degree yes, however what you've doing here is exposing your firewall for people to probe and break into. @joebobfrank: What I would like to do is configure a tunnel of some sort so that when I am at a public computer somewhere I can connect back home through a tunnel to check my e-mail to avoid the sniffers. Can this be done easily with pfSense? Use a VPN.  pfSense supports PPTP, IPsec and OpenVPN.

There are various tweaks or features here and there I can think of that are missing from the GUI, but are supported in FreeBSD.  Some of the things I can think of that I've seen or heard of on dedicated APs but are missing:  association control by MAC address (whitelisting or blacklisting), WPS, WDS, and controlling the channel width (5 MHz, 10 MHz, 20 MHz - default on non-N, 40 MHz - default on N).  These are already all available in FreeBSD, but no code has been written yet to take advantage of them from the GUI (except there may be a partial implementation of association control by MAC address that is currently disabled). Also there is 802.11n, which is supported as far as running the card in that mode, but I don't know of any FreeBSD drivers that have working 802.11n rate control yet, so it is not yet possible to actually use the faster speeds in that mode.

I noticed that the Traffic Graph shows all the traffic, its just the queue graph that gets clipped. Would this be affected by the traffic shaper max bandwidth values?

looks like somehow it's getting an IPv6 IP in there? Looks weird for sure.

Same thing happened to me a couple of weeks ago.  Just like NeophyteHeaven I had uninstalled Snort to upgrade to the new version.  Only thing I could do was a clean install to get the WebConfigurator to run again.

You must involve some kind of encryption, ideally a VPN such as OpenVPN, IPsec, or as a last resort, PPTP. HTTPS is ok, but a self-signed certificate has its drawbacks. If you always access it from the same machine though it isn't so bad, because you will still be notified if the certificate has changed in some way. Personally, I use HTTPS+IP restrictions on most locations, and OpenVPN or other tunneling for the rest.

Agree and sorry for wrong conclusion. I have a firewall which shows more than 100TB in Total (over 8 months).

@0tt0: Ok, I'll assign a specifc high tun # and see if that changes anything. Perhaps this type of usage isn't really recommended? It's more of a "it works if you're careful but don't expect perfection" type deal. :-) Some other caveats are covered in the book and on the doc wiki, but mainly hardwiring the tun device is important if you have more than one OpenVPN instance – client or server.

The theme files are all in git. https://rcs.pfsense.org/projects/pfsense Vector logo is available in cvs here: http://cvs.pfsense.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/artwork/

If you change the LAN subnet, you have to change the DHCP server to assign the appropriate IPs and release and renew. Or if you're using a static IP on client, change the IP, gateway, and DNS.

The best fix is to use a browser that natively supports it - that is: every single one except IE. Or, there are a number of add ons available if you insist on using IE: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Svg#SVG_and_Microsoft_Internet_Explorer

I know this is old but I thought it had been fixed, and it still isn't. So I opened a ticket for it: http://redmine.pfsense.org/issues/show/477

@tommyboy180: jaime get your own thread. It is really rude to hijack someone else's topic. madapaka, open your config file in a text editor and see if there are any duplicate entries, maybe a section isn't closed properly or something got messed up. Also can you confirm that everything was working fine on the new system with NO packages running? Hi Tommy, Except for the packages, yes everything is working (e.g. NAT, including the ipsec and openvpn tunnels), I also remember that I was in the same predicament before with version 1.2.2 but everything worked during reinstall; but everything went south with 1.2.3. reinstall. madapaka

I'm not sure how feasible this would be, but it may be possible with multiple instances of lighttpd. There is an HTTP->HTTPS redirect that happens on 2.0 now since HTTPS is the default.

http://forum.pfsense.org/index.php?action=search There are only like 20+ threads about this… (Not possible in 1.2.x, already in 2.0 beta)

Look for info on configuring lighttpd for your certs, then look at the part that generates the lighttpd configuration in system.inc.
